This study explored how Korean immigrants education, length of stay and English fluency affect their political socialization, mediated through traditional news media and the news Web use. Political socialization included political knowledge, interest, and participation. The media usage patterns included U.S. news media, U.S. news Web, Korean news Web, and Korean news Media use by Korean immigrants in the United State. This study found as follows. First, education, length of stay, and English fluency indirectly increased political socialization(political knowledge, interest, and participation) through their relationship with U.S. news media use. Second, U.S. news Web played a potentially important role in Korean immigrants' political socialization by increasing their political interest. Third, Korean news media partly contributed to Korean immigrants' political socialization by increasing their political interest. Fourth, Korean news Web use did not contribute to Korean immigrants' political socialization in terms of political knowledge, interest, and participation at all. In conclusion, this study found that traditional news media's role was more important than news Web's one in the process of immigrants' political socialization to the host society.

딥러닝 기술을 이용한 정치적 성향의 편향성 분류를 위하여 신문 뉴스 기사를 수집하고, 머신러닝을 위한 학습 데이터를 구축하였다. 학습 데이터의 구축은 보수 성향과 진보 성향을 대표하는 6개 언론사의 뉴스에서 정치적 성향을 이진 분류 데이터로 구축하였다. 뉴스 기사의 수집 방법으로 최근 이슈들 중에서 정치적 성향과 밀접하게 관련이 있는 키워드 15개를 선정하고 이에 관한 뉴스 기사들을 수집하였다. 그 결과로 11,584개의 학습 및 실험용 데이터를 구축하였으며, 정치적 편향성 분류를 위한 머신러닝 모델을 설계하였다. 머신러닝 기법으로 학습 및 실험을 위해 형태소 단위의 임베딩을 이용하여 문장 및 문서 임베딩으로 확장하였으며, SVM(Support Vector Machine)을 이용하여 정치적 편향성 분류 실험을 수행한 결과로 75%의 정확도를 달성하였다.

트위터에서 정치 성향을 가지거나 관심이 있는 트위터 사용자는 관심있는 정치 인물이나 단체에 대한 뉴스 기사에 대해 자신의 의견을 남기거나 그대로 인용하게 된다. 또한, 자신의 의견과 공감하거나 비공감하는 트윗에 대해서 리트윗을 하거나 추가적인 자신의 의견을 언급하기도 한다. 본 논문에서는 이슈가 되고있는 정치 뉴스 기사에 대해 관심 있는 트위터 사용자들을 찾아 트위터 사용자들 간의 트윗 문서들 사이에서의 관계 정보를 가지는 사용자 네트워크에서의 트위터 사용자들의 성향을 분류해주는 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법의 유효성을 검증하기 위해 트위터에서 이슈가 된 정치 뉴스 기사들과 각 뉴스 이슈를 언급한 트위터 데이터에서 트윗 문서 내용 유사도 기반 분류 방법과의 비교 실험 하였다. 실험 결과에서 사용자간의 관계 정보를 이용한 성향 분류 방법이 유효함을 보였다.

온라인 뉴스 플랫폼의 발전은 에코 챔버(echo chamber) 효과와 정치적 양극화를 심화시키며, 이를 완화하기 위한 선행 연구로 뉴스 기사의 정치적 성향을 판단하는 연구가 필요하다. 기존 연구는 외부 지식 그래프를 활용하여 뉴스 기사의 텍스트 정보를 더욱 풍부하게 표현한다. 그러나, 외부 지식을 임베딩하는 지식 그래프 임베딩(knowledge graph embedding, KGE) 방법은 다양하며, 각 KGE 방법이 정치적 성향 예측 정확도에 미치는 효과에 대해서 충분히 연구되지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 정치적 성향 예측에 외부 지식의 활용을 최대화하기 위한 다양한 KGE 방법들의 효과를 분석한다. 실험 결과, 외부 지식 그래프 내의 개체들 간 복잡한 관계를 간단하고 정확하게 표현 가능한 ModE 방법을 활용하는 것이 정치적 성향 예측에 가장 효과적이라는 것을 확인하였다.

The main purpose of this study is to search for variables that influence the perception of news of YouTube current affairs and political channel users. Existing studies have focused on providing normative criticism by examining the public opinion influence of YouTube channels, which play a role similar to the media, in terms of political polarization, fake news, and confirmation bias. However, this study attempts to examine the changes and meanings of users' perception of news with the advent of YouTube. To this end, an online survey was conducted for users with experience in using YouTube's current affairs and political channels. As a result of the study, it was found that the news perception of YouTube current affairs and political channel users was mixed with the perception of news from the perspective of professional journalism and the perception of newly added news in the digital environment. Based on these results, the researcher examined the implications of the professional news media's response direction to the platform environment.

We expect that it helps user to obtain unbiased information from internet news and online discussion by providing estimated political stance of news comment writer. Through comprehensive tests we prove the effectiveness of two proposed methods, lexicon-based algorithm and similarity-based algorithm.

As newspapers which have been major news media are being replaced by on-line news media in recent years, many researchers are paying attention to "comments(news users' short remarks on an article)", a newly emerged way of forming public opinion. This study is examining how the similarity between political disposition of on-line news visitors and that of news media impacts upon their evaluation on quality of comments from the viewpoint of 'social identity theory.' This study may have academic significance because it inspected the pattern of media usage and the cognition of comments in relation to political disposition for the first time and showed 'comments reading' and the function of comments to form public opinion(comments journalism).
